Proposed Development Erection of 6ft fence to the front and side (in retrospect)
Location 53 Thomson Drive, Airdrie ML6 9DG 
1. EXISTING ROADS –  Consideration of the: General impact, Type of Connection(s) (Road Junction/ Footway
crossing), Location (s) of connection (s), Sightlines, Pedestrian Provision 
a) An unobstructed visibility splay of 2.4m x 35m from the vehicular access measured along the road channel of Thomson
Drive is required to be maintained in both directions. As the footway appears to be 2m wide at this location, the visibility
splay cannot be achieved with the proposed 6ft fence in place. It is recommended that the proposed fence within the
visibility splay is lowered to no more than 1.05m in height from the road channel in the interest of road safety. 
2. NEW ROADS -  Consideration of the: Width, Layout, Junction details (location, radii, sightlines), Turning
Facilities, Pedestrian Provision, Provision for Services
